“Mamma look!” the little boy cried out
As Mary
looked up to where Johnny was pointing to
She noticed all
the houses in the town had a scarlet cord tied to the window facing the road.
What's with
the scarlet thread? She asked a woman in the market place.
“It's a
symbolic representation of faith the people in this town follow
For God's
mercy and kindness to fall on their loved ones.
As Rahab
the prostitute did to save her family when Jericho was about to be captured by
Joshua and his men as it is written in the book of Joshua 2:18 CJB”, the
woman replied.
18 when
we enter the land, you tie this piece of scarlet cord in the window you let us
down from; and you gather together in your house your father, mother, brothers,
and your father’s entire household. 19 If anyone goes out the doors of your house into the street, he will
be responsible for his own blood, and we will be guiltless. But everyone who
stays with you in the house — we will be responsible for his blood if anyone
lays a hand on him. 20 However, if you say a word about this business of ours, then we will
be free of your oath that you made us swear.” 21 “According to your words, so be it,” she said, and sent them away.
As they departed, she tied the scarlet cord in the window.
As per the
promise to Rahab Joshua told his men Joshua 6:22-23 CJB
22 Y’hoshua said to the two men who had reconnoitered the land,
“Go into the prostitute’s house and bring the woman out with all that she has,
as you swore to her.” 23 The young men, the spies, went in and brought out Rachav with
her father, mother, brothers and all she had; they brought out all her
relatives and put them safely outside the camp of Isra’el.
Oh! How nice! Mary replied with marvel in her eyes.
She felt a tug on her dress, Johnny shouted excitedly.
“Mamma, shall we put one up too?”
“Yes,” she nodded in the affirmative.
“We want everyone in our family to be saved too.”
